An inch of silver and an inch of gold are hard to buy. Everyone has his own motto. It is like the wings of a bird and the sails of a ship. With it, birds can fly in the sky and ships can sail in the ocean. Dante once said, "Failure is the mother of success." This is my wing, my sail.

I first came into contact with this sentence in the fourth grade of primary school. I still remember that I failed in the final exam. None of the top 20. I broke down and felt that I would never fail and never get into the top 20. I usually walk on the road to school after school and see beautiful flowers on the roadside of the school. I think they suddenly lost their beauty. Walking, I saw the sign that I usually turn a blind eye to. It says, "Failure is the mother of success-Dante." My heart is shocking, and my life will not be smooth sailing. Didn't Nobel, an outstanding scientist, invent explosives after countless attempts and failures? And Edison, Madame Curie ... The road to success is always full of thorns, which is the sword that hurts the weak and the flag of the brave. I am a pupil, why didn't I fail? How can there be no setbacks in the long road of life?

My heart is full of sunshine, and I can't help but sigh that sunshine is always after the storm.

The ancients left many thought-provoking famous sayings, such as "an inch of silver and an inch of gold can't be bought", "nothing is difficult in the world, nothing is impossible to a willing mind", "where there is a will, there is a way" and "many things grind" ... But my favorite sentence is "modesty makes people progress and pride makes people lag behind", which has benefited me a lot.

I remember when I was in the third grade, I wrote a composition entitled "One thing I want" and gave it to the teacher for correction. The teacher said to me happily, "Your composition is not bad! If there is progress, we must continue to work hard in the future! " I also posted my composition on the wall, and the teacher repeatedly told me, "Don't be complacent when you get good grades, but keep a modest attitude." However, I don't quite understand this sentence.

I told my mother about it, and my mother praised me and told me, "Be modest, don't be proud." . I was so excited that what my mother just said went in one ear and out the other. So I became proud, thinking: the "guy" of composition actually has nothing to be afraid of, and I can cope with it at once. From then on, my heart was full of pride, I didn't like reading, I didn't concentrate on listening in class, and my writing was not good. ...

In a composition class, the teacher asked us to write a composition. I thought, "I wrote my first composition so well, and this time it's nothing", so I wrote a composition casually and handed it in. As a result, I was called to the office by the teacher. The teacher said to me seriously, "Look at your own composition? I can't understand it. Can you understand your composition? Tell me. " I looked down at my composition. I was blindsided and thought: Is this my composition? Unexpectedly, even you can't understand it yourself ... The teacher added: "Your composition is really bad, and the central idea is not clear;" A misspelled word; The sentence is not fluent, alas ... you, I praise you, so proud. I hope you study hard and improve your writing ability. Now the teacher can't give you a famous saying-'modesty makes people progress, pride makes people fall behind' ... "

After returning home, I wrote the famous words given to me by my teacher on the cardboard and put them in front of my desk as my motto. Since then, I have listened carefully to classes, read various books and practiced my handwriting every day.

"Modesty makes people progress, pride makes people lag behind", which has become my motto and will always spur me.

The selection of materials should be new, and the words should be true;
